Bonus day with Sideways Experience! We were supposed to have a down day and just relax, but ain't nobody got time for that. Zac got us in with Sideways X and epicness ensued with backwards north and a mini comp where I attempt to qualify for the first time since Formula D in 2015!

About this trip:
I had a crazy idea earlier this year to do a 2 man drift week, but in Japan, in a couple 350z's. I asked my good buddy Mike if he'd want to join and didn't even finish the sentence before he said yes. The goal was to make the simplest, most affordable, reliable drift / street cars we could and beat the hell out of them for an entire week.
I talked to my main man in Japan, Junichi from Hardcore Tokyo about how we could make it happen. He told me I was crazy, but we came up with a plan. Dates and events were solidified, Z's were bought and registered, and I started getting and shipping parts. No, don't ask Jun to do this for you, it was a huge favor from him to us so please don't ask. Shout out to Cam Villena for helping with receiving parts as well!
Luckily I have some super solid partners and we got both Z's dialed in with GKTech angle kits, arms and hydros, Fortune Auto 500 coilovers, Kansei wheels, Valino Tires and Grip Royal steering wheels. J Beat and Juns boys got most of the stuff installed pre us getting there, but there was still some left to do.
